The mineral, fossil, and gem fair at Arezzo Fiere e Congressi
About Arezzo Mineral Expo
A journey into the heart of the Earth in Arezzo
Arezzo Mineral Expo is the fair dedicated to minerals, fossils, and gems that brings the halls of Arezzo Fiere e Congressi to life, located at Via Lazzaro Spallanzani 23, in the municipality of Arezzo, in the province of Arezzo (Tuscany). For a full weekend, the Arezzo exhibition center becomes a meeting point for collectors, Earth science enthusiasts, and families in a city already famous for its goldsmithing tradition and its roots in precious metal craftsmanship.
What to find at the fair
The exhibition brings together selected exhibitors from all over Italy and abroad, presenting a wide variety of materials and objects related to the mineral kingdom:
- Collector minerals, from raw specimens to the most sought-after crystals;
- Fossils from various geological eras;
- Natural gems and worked stones;
- Bijoux, jewelry, and handcrafted creations;
- Crystals and seashells for enthusiasts and curious visitors.
Activities, workshops, and education
Arezzo Mineral Expo is not just a market for collectors: the event places great emphasis on outreach and education. The program includes educational workshops, activities dedicated to children and teenagers, and in-depth sessions designed to introduce the public to geology and natural history in a simple and engaging way. A special space is reserved for schools and families, with thematic demonstrations and activities suitable for younger visitors.
One ticket, two fairs
One of the event's key features is the inclusion—with a single ticket—of the Arezzo Ludica fair, dedicated to the collecting of vintage games and toys. This formula offers a complete experience suitable for adults, teenagers, and families, combining a passion for minerals with a love for collectible gaming.
A young and growing event
Recently established in Arezzo, the event held its first edition under the name Arezzo Mineral Show and has quickly established itself as a reference point for mineralogy enthusiasts in Central Italy. The event is organized by the Aurea Eventi Association, which chose the setting of Arezzo Fiere e Congressi to host this adventure into the heart of the Earth.
